Polymeric Sand Calculator
Calculate how much polymeric sand you need for your paving project. Determine bags required based on paver size, joint width, and area to cover.
Step 1: Paver Details
Understanding Joint Dimensions
Joint width is the space between pavers. Joint depth is how deep the sand needs to fill. Typical joints are 0.25-0.5 inches wide and 1.5-2 inches deep.

About Polymeric Sand
Polymeric sand hardens when wet, locking pavers in place and preventing weed growth. Coverage varies by joint size and paver pattern. Always add 10-15% extra for waste.
